breathtaking scenery and audio. High Quality stuff. This is why the archive is quite possibly the greatest site on the net. You are never bored with the archive..always something to see. I can never make up my mind what I want to watch because there is so much to choose from. Enjoy this nice piece of relaxation.

Another hour of fantastic scenes bringing sub-aquatic silence to my screen and to my awareness. The sea needs our help in defending its beauty from the

destructive forces. The sea is the source and these films help a lot in making this point.
But it took me a while to find out that there are 7 more hours of Aqualounge available. Why is that?

Subject: Diver's Choice
Subject: Diver's Choice
In my opinion Aqualounge is an absolute unique project, following the footsteps of pioneers like Prof. Hans Hass or Jacques-Yves-Cousteau in bringing pictures
...
back up from the depth of the ocean and documenting the tremendous beauty that is hidden beneath the surface and revealed only to a small number of us. In freely sharing the precious moments that one single Aqualounge-camera-diver has captured over the years, this project surpasses the ideas of the pioneers by far. With oceans in deep trouble it is more important than ever that as many minds as possible understand, what we are about to loose.
The extensive material of Aqualounge is edited in long sequences, away from today guideline: the faster, the better. Much more homogeneous the editor let the screenplay be directed by nature itself. In sometimes longer and sometimes shorter scenes every film seems to be like a good dive should be: A flow in which one does not know what there will be to see; some animals will disappear within seconds upon sighting, others are going to give deep insights in their lifes, but there is always something interesting and / or beautiful waiting around the next corner - every single shot a proof of what godÃÂôs nature is capable of.
Aqualounge two - the second hour - goes on with observing interaction between divers and marine-life. A subtle dance in the dark with a curious squid starts this chapter, disguising octopus and unimpressed rays follow. The camera observes a group of divers being rounded by a very interested grouper, an evasive turtle, clown-fish defending their anemone and a cleaner-fish servicing a diver. The interaction-chapter ends with a large group of notorious Barracudas floating by in peace and harmony as if they wanted to belie the blood-thirsty image that was given to them.
The picture-flow then turns to the tiny architects of the largest built structures on earth - the corals. Wonderful scenes reveal the alien landscapes of the macro-world in microscopic details and in great long-shots.
Finally the second hour of the film ends with a colourful overview of the reef's inhabitants.
In deed worth the extensive download!

DIVERS ! AQUANAUTS ! SEAMEN !
The second part of Aqualounge seems to be especially made for us, in order to enjoy our object of love, while on land, away ... from the sea or in dry-dock.
I watched it first time on a 24-hrs-deko-chamber-ride (both parts four times!)
ItÃÂôs nothing special and that makes it special.
Just fish, reefs and dolphins in the flow.
First part only some diving, second part lots of it. Enjoy, relax - donÃÂôt worry: you are going to be back in the water soon!

More time underwater. Recreational diving. Very relaxing. Very slow. ThatÃÂôs why divers dive instead of playing golf or chess.

Looks like someone had lots of really good dives. Come to Australia - get more (Sharks_Dive_Shop@hotmail.com)!
More great shots, good editing. ItÃÂôs ... also long, I admit (2of8hrs?!), but itÃÂôs perfect for us to show it to our students - specially to the fearful ones. We like it and donÃÂôt understand, why pictures of nature trigger such a controversy in the reviews - specially in todayÃÂôs world. Better discuss politics!
It's a 5, but for still not shooting in Australia itÃÂôs 1 down!

Subject: Thanks for the feedback
to the members of the diving-community:
there were disturbances due to too much enthusiastic feedback - feel free to leave your thoughts in the guestbook ... of our homepage.
there were over 2000 visits on aqualounges web-page in 24 hours - thanks for all the feedback, thanks for the cheers, the appreciation and for the critic aswell (little more constructive would be helpful).
of course i like the film, because it was in deed a lot of work - knowing how much i have to give it five stars, sorry (this is the second of eight hours in this series and we plan to do another eight hours until 2005). all parts are already shown on events and will be downloadable one by one.
a short version of the eight hours compressed into 90 minutes is going to be available AFTER christmas.
aqualounge is a media-experiment and tries to bring the water and itÃÂôs ecology closer to the viewer by letting the pictures do their job and it looks promising.
thanks a lot for watching, thinking about and reviewing it at http:www.aqualounge.de.vu

This is much better than videos of burning fire-sites or beach-sunsets. Watch and enjoy the flow. There is nothing to be ashamed of, if you feel disorientation

or dizzyness - you might not be waterproof! But I read somewhere, there will be eight more parts, with these two that makes ten. So if you have a sensible stomach, better stay clear of this area, unknown whatever. (You really joined under a fake name just for this. ThatÃÂôs poor!)

Seems exactly ... right to me. Just watch it, whenever I am fed up with the news. ItÃÂôs like floating in a different world. ItÃÂôs like a drug. ItÃÂôs good - not for divers and sea-lovers only, but for all of us who need some peace of mind in these days.
